Thanks guys, im going to buy the 20hp.

So does that mean the high thrust 9.9 will move the boat faster then the regular 9.9?

Well, I have decided instead to sell my yamaha 9.9 and just buy something new. I was looking at the suzukis, and noticed they have a 9.9 high thrust which has the same displacement as their 20hp. Is this 9.9 just a choked down version of the 20hp, maybe it has a cam stop?

I have a 1987 Yamaha 9.9SH. Im going to rebuild my carb, but I was wondering if anyone knows if the 15hp carb is different than the 9.9 other than jetting and main nozzle? I figure while its apart I may as well change that stuff out too, unless the actual carb itself has a bigger intake. I...

I dont have a box, but I have a tray. What I did was took a piece of 1" plywood, sealed it, then glued it to the aluminum floor with PL2000. Then I screwed the tray down with a bunch of screws. 4 years and still going strong.

So heres the deal. I remodeled my back deck last season in my 1542, and im not too happy with the way it came out. I also put new carpeting on the back deck and floor, and I was going to recarpet the front this year. Now im thinking, since I dont like the back deck and im going to pull the front...

On my jon boat I have a hand controlled. On the Triton its a foot controlled. Now, I always used to prefer the hand control, but after fishing yesterday with the foot control, im seriously starting to think about switching the jon boat to foot. Im not sure why, but something told me that I have...

Hey guys, I haven't posted in a while, going through some personal things. I fell off the wagon and put back on about 12lbs, but hopefully I can find the motivation soon to get back on track. These past few weeks have been pretty tough for me.Hell I haven't even put the boat in the water or...

On the inside or outside or your elbow?

Weighed in this morning at 285. Even though I have lost 19bs, I dont really feel it. Does anyone else feel this way? 2/24/14--304.4 2/28/14--298.4 3/7/14--292.8 3/14/14--291 3/21/14--290.8 3/28/14--288 4/4/14--285

Don't worry, I did the same thing Saturday. I'm not sure why weekends are so tough for me.

The weight is coming off, slowly but surely. I have been being lazy and not going to the gym, so Im not seeing the results I did the first two weeks. 2/24/14--304.4 2/28/14--298.4 3/7/14--292.8 3/14/14--291 3/21/14--290.8 3/28/14--288

If the treated wood you got is made with Ecolife, you should be ok. It uses non metallic treatment. Here is what they say about the Ecolife treatment. Fasteners and Aluminum Contact Ecolife Stabilized Weather-Resistant Wood is no more corrosive to fasteners and metal fittings than...

So I'm a bit indecisive these days. I have my back deck apart, replacing my live well. I thought now would be a good time to recarpet since it is apart. The current carpet in my boat is a bit slippery when it rains, so if I'm going to redo the back I'm gonna do it all. At the same time, I'm...
